is anyone gonna take photos of the FMIC installation? Would be good if someone could post it up after its done since I don't think I can make it on Saturday

Someone tell me the address plz, I'll pop by on sunday

Hopefully the installation will be quite well documented... I'll be at work from 8am to 2pm so I don't know what the plan is yet...

For the final time: this event is on this SATURDAY

FMIC going in today :):(:D

At the moment I'm still at work - anxious couple of hours before I go back North to see my baby get a new set of lungs :P

Who's there? I don't know... what will the 34 look like when I get back? I don't know... The only thing I do know is that by sunset I will have a new FMIC and SAFC2 in there!!!

Nice to meet you too Steve :blink:

The Latest News:

Well the FMIC has been installed and it works brilliantly right now... you guys should hear the noise that comes from that turbo now :D All in all it took about 10 hours all up including complete dissasembly, fabrications, and modifications. But the overall experience was well worth the wait and sweat. Biggest dilemmas included: getting bonnet to close properly, getting the fan right so it doesn't hit the piping, and finally (and most obviously) getting the front bar modified so that it still looks like an R34 :rofl:

On a positive note though, just like to say that the JustJap intercooler and the R34 Piping from JustSR were simply fantastic! Everything bolted together nicely without any head scratching - cheers to those two places for their help on this one :D

Once again, I'd like to thank Mitch at GCWP for all the hard work... actually got him up at 7am LOL. Looking forward to next time already. Also a big thanks to all those who droped by to have a chat and offer advice.

The bad news is that the factory air snorkel no longer fits so I will have to decide on either having to fabricate a new snorkel that does, or go pod?!? Still weighing up those two options.

The second piece of bad news, well not so bad actually, is that we didn't get around to installing the SAFC2 which was a shame. But there is always next week for that :D :D Can't wait.

All of the photos and a full write up is being developed on Project R34 - SATANIC so wait for that one to be released.

Oh yes, there will be quite a lot of stock R34 gear being put up for sale in the FOR SALE section... so keep an eye out there.

Looking at getting my rear speakers (and front splits if they arrive on time) installed this weekend... same place as always; just need to check with my mate to see what time he's free :)

Also going to get my clear indicators installed - sick of the amber colored plastic which you can see from a mile away :( Picked up a set of Front and Side Clear Nismo's from Kudos Motorsports...

  • 3 weeks later...

Purchased a front lip for the 34 from carmate... It was advertised as a GTR-style lip, but other members have informed me that it is a copy of the factory GTT lip. Bloody false advertising!

Anyways, fitting will be on Saturday for all those interested. Hopefully our mate who is a body kit expert will be there to guide us along :D

any chance of a location of where you are getting it fitted? keen to pop by on a number of occasion but was alway so damn busy. Finally free this weekend, really interested in seeing it go on.

cheers all

    • Sorry to hear your HFM BM57 was faulty,  did you contact HFM I would hope they would be at least grateful for the information if there was some sort of manufacturing fault, you would hope they would be sympathetic even if your item was 2 years old if it had never been fitted. May I ask where it leaked from ?
    • Cats are called Bella, and Donna...  Like that poisonous plant And I remember your 2 monsters, I remember making a little bit of wee when you let them out... LOL I have already installed cat doors into the laundry where their kitty litter is, and the sun room, apart from the cat doors there's not going to be any permanent mounted stuff on the interior walls (interior doors are cheap and easy to replace) I will get a outdoor cat cage thingie once I finish the landscaping out back... https://catnip.com.au/ The only off limit areas are the main bedroom and the gym room....but, currently the cats are curled up in bed, in the main bedroom with the Mrs.....LOL, the off limits for the kittens to the main bedroom lasted about 5 minutes with Jackie I currently only have 1 free standing huge cat tree multiple level scratching post thingie in the lounge room, but, I will be getting another one soon now that I'm happy with the furniture layout in the back room and have a perfect spot for it  
    • All of this is making it seem clear that running the Coppermix twin was definitely the way to go, especially in hindsight with how insane tariffs have gotten and the strength of the USD vs yen at the time.
    • That sounds like no chance of even importing one for road registering then Now I see why Duncan wants to check LHD rules for Targa...   I wonder how "bolt in" the AWD would be if you got one imported from the US and swapped it to an AUD one
    • Not to mention they drive like a bucket of bolts! yuck!
